Discover a true little paradise, a fishing village full of charm and sunny all year round, even in the middle of November!
While temperatures drop in Europe this November, there is one place where the sun still shines generously, with summer temperatures of 25 to 30°C. Walking through the cobbled streets of this picturesque village, you almost feel like you’re in Venice. Charming little bridges span canals lined with houses with colorful facades. Bright flower beds brighten up the balconies and doorways. The marina welcomes sailboats and traditional fishing boats, recalling the authenticity of this preserved place.
Lovers of relaxation will appreciate the pretty golden sand beaches, just a few minutes walk from the center. The calm, turquoise waters invite you to swim. For the more active, many water sports are offered, from kayaking to diving to jet-skiing.
This haven of peace and relaxation is located on the island of Gran Canaria, in the Canary Islands archipelago and is called Puerto de Mogán. Located in the southwest of Gran Canaria, it is eaten away by mass tourism, especially during the end of year celebrations or in the middle of summer. But during the hot season, its peaceful, almost timeless atmosphere invites you to relax and disconnect.
Puerto de Mogán seduces with its small traditional fishing port. Every morning, the boats leave to fill their nets before returning to unload their catch on the busy quays. If you like fish restaurants, Puerto de Mogan has some great places to enjoy grilled fish or paellas.
The mild climate, the beautiful sunshine guaranteed 300 days a year, allow you to enjoy the café terraces and shops all year round. The omnipresent greenery, the lush gardens, particularly in the hotels further back from the seafront, make you forget the aridity of the surrounding landscapes. Puerto de Mogán also hosts markets. This is the opportunity to taste tasty local fruits like mangoes and avocados.
A true little gem of Gran Canaria, Puerto de Mogán offers a taste of paradise with its microclimate, its authentic charm and its welcoming atmosphere. An ideal destination to escape winter and recharge your batteries in the sun, in an enchanting setting between sea and mountains… The hinterland and its picturesque villages like Aguimes or the famous dunes of Maspalomas by the sea are just a few minutes’ drive away, making Puerto de Mogan a perfect base for discovering the variety of landscapes of Gran Canaria.
